Pros

Almost everyone in a non-outsourceable role has very high job security as long as they don't rock the boat or make waves.

Cons

We went from Java applets to AJAX to Flash ($$$$ spent on that one) and now we're moving to HTML5. We also have some screens in jsp and asp. At this point our product is a bit of a schizophrenic, Frankenstein monster. Outsourcing of Engineering jobs from US to overseas. They may be cheap, but experience with the product counts for something too. Especially here where 90% of knowledge is still in people's heads.

Pros

Not a bad option if you want to work in an office in Chelmsford. Friendly people (mostly).

Cons

They are a privately held company that reports non-GAAP earnings. They do not include the cost of some very important items such as fees paid to the Private Equity company that owns them. This is publicly stated in the fine print of the earnings announcements. As a Finance professional this makes me less than 100% confident abut the integrity of their earnings statements. It makes me wonder how many people will be fired when they change ownership, and which executives have golden parachutes. There's been some employee dissatisfaction expressed lately and the management response has been really cookie-cutter and shallow. Sometimes we feel like we're in an episode of "The Office." Lastly, this is the least diverse company I have ever worked for. I'm sure this is not a deliberate strategy by the company, but the results are striking.
